Alan's return follows series two of Mid Morning Matters and Alan Partridge's Scissored Isle, which both aired on Sky last year.

And one person who might be serving as inspiration for some of Coogan's latest Partridge material is none other than US president Donald Trump, who's "uber-Partridge" apparently.

"In some ways the only person on Earth who's more Alan Partridge than Alan Partridge is Donald Trump," Steve joked. "Even Alan Partridge would think Donald Trump is a bit much.

"I thought Nigel Farage was the incarnation of Alan Partridge, a nightmare version of Alan Partridge who actually wields some power, but I would have never predicted the leader of the free world would be an uber-Partridge."
